Stephen Schaub Becomes a Movie Star
That’s right! I am happy to announce that I am being featured in an upcoming documentary of photographers who work with motion picture film for still photography. The amazing Brendan Leahy of Studio Skylight has visited my studio for location filming at the Wilson Castle in Vermont, MassMoca and The Artist Book Foundation (more on that in just a bit) and on Cape Cod. We are planning additional shooting in Mexico and NYC in the very near future. The full length documentary- featuring ten artists from across the United States, but most importantly ME- will be out in early summer and will be featured at an exhibition I am curating on the topic of motion picture film photographers at the Wilson Museum at the Southern Vermont Art Center in Manchester, Vermont.
For now please enjoy these two teaser clips… sound on for best experience…
And follow me on instagram @stephenschaub where I am posting a lot of new content and daily studio updates.

Goodnight Kodachrome: 1935-2010
Click on the audio play button to listen to this bed time story read by Eve Schaub… but first be sure to get a glass of warm milk. Today is the last day to get Kodachrome processed.
Goodnight Kodachrome
In the big yellow room
There was a camera
and a classic film
and a picture of Paul Simon jumping over the moon.
Goodnight Kodachrome
Goodnight moon
Goodnight slide show in the living room
Goodnight 25
Goodnight 64
Goodnight dynamic range eight stops more
Goodnight Dwayne’s
Goodnight flare
Goodnight little Afghan girl’s haunting stare
Goodnight mail order
Goodnight rush
And goodnight to Steve McCurry whispering “hush”
Goodnight plastic carousel
Goodnight transparencies rare
Goodnight glorious old color film… everywhere.

Overlapping Frame Panoramic Technique
Below find new artworks from my recent photographic trip to Italy. All of the images below were shot on an XA 4 using Kodak Ektar film. I am still scanning and editing my film and anticipate finishing this body of work in a month or two, at which time I will post a complete portfolio. No titles yet; just basic information with each image for identification purposes. The last image in the series however is a photograph of a finished printed artwork from this series and as such has additional information.
To view additional artworks made using this technique please view my A New Eden Artworks.
One last image made since my return and after figuring out how to do this technique on the Rollei 35… experimentation is key!

Publishing Your Own Photography Book
Having published 4 books in the last 10 years and seen radical transformations in not only the printing process but also in the selling of art books I decided to record this audio blog for anyone considering publishing their own book whether using a full scale fine art press, publisher or an online printing service. See the example images below for specific examples that are mentioned in the audio. Also, please comment on printing services you have used with your thoughts as well as suggestions that may be of interest/ help to our community.
Here is a nice online marketing badge provided by Blurb, for Free, so people interested in your book can have a direct link to its page on Blurb (note that I have one here in the right side bar and also on stephenschaub.com. Included are book specifications, cost, delivery options and a 15 page book preview (this is an option that you can decide to do or not do…you should do it) that I feel really helps sell your book.
The Nightmare Print
Every photographer has his or her own “nightmare” print story- some more than one! In this audio blog I discuss how I (Stephen Schaub) work through a nightmare print at Indian Hill Imageworks- give a listen!
Hariku Paper, “Cloud Dragon Paper”, as mentioned in the audioblog as well as the “Nightmare” Print.
